1 FLOW AIDS

2 WHY FLOW AIDS? SITUATION Due to their characteristics, many powders inside silos, hoppers, chutes, piping, tanks or any other container will tend to stick to the surface. PROBLEM Any small change in the opening of the outlet, a rough surface, bends, shallow angles, the shape of the container, as well as the particle shape of the material handled might slow down the flow of the product, thus generating waste. SOLUTION flow aids are designed to solve issues caused by design errors or by the characteristics of the powder or granules handled. Moreover, they increase process efficiency and improve plant safety. 2
